Martin and Lewis were an American comedy duo, comprising singer Dean Martin (as the "straight man") and comedian Jerry Lewis (as his stooge). The pair worked together in nightclubs, on radio and television, and film from 1946 until 1956.

Subject: Safe to use in a short Film?
Hi,

I have made a short film which is a nostalgic look at the 40s 50s era of Hollywood romantic comedies. I want to use some of the music, ads, comedy in the Martin & Lewis radio recordings...does anyone out there know if this is possible?

I do see that creative commons gives the ok...but am I missing something else?

Subject: Copyright question
Hello,

I am a student filmmaker at Regis University in Denver, CO. I want to use a track from the Martin and Lewis show in my movie and have it be legal to use in film festivals around the nation. The track I selected states that it is under the Creative Commons and is under the Public Domain. I imagine this means there are no rights reserved and I can use it safely for public screenings. On a more specific note, we want to use the #75 track with Vera Ellen. In the beginning of the broadcast Dean Martin sings "On Top of the World." Are we able to use that song from this track in the film or is there a separate copyright on that? Please let me know as soon as possible. If you do not know, is there a contact that may know?
Sincerely,
Michael Sharon

Subject: Dean & Jerry Shine On Their Radio Show
This is a first rate program from the early career of Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin. Both come across as very pleasant individuals, easy to listen to, and along with their banter between themselves and their guests, a very entertaining comedy program. The singing by Dean Martin is always pleasant and professionally done. My childhood family tuned in weekly to Dean and Jerry - a real treat to hear them again. My gratitude for airing these programs on the internet archives.
